ASX Announcement Date: 14 Mar 2022

HIGH GRADE MINERALISATION EXPANDS PORT GREGORY FOOTPRINT

  • Assay results for the entire 2022 drilling campaign have been returned, with results submitted to IHC Mining for inclusion in the JORC Mineral Resource model due for release within 3-4 Weeks
  • Notable intersections at a cut-off grade of 2% THM (refer to Table 1) include:
    • 9.3% THM over 12 m from surface (PGAC0165)
    • 7.7% THM over 15 m from surface (PGAC0169)
    • 5.7% THM over 27 m from 1m downhole (PGAC0154)
    • 5.7% THM over 19 m from surface (PGAC0167)
  • Extension drilling has uncovered a large, thick, high grade mineralised sand package not previously identified or included in previous Exploration Targets. The mineralisation is open to the North and South and will be targeted for follow up drilling to determine the extent of the mineralisation

Heavy Minerals Limited (ACN 647 831 833) ("HVY", "Heavy Minerals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that assay results for the 2022 drilling campaign have been received, processed, and are summarised in Table 1. The focus of the 2022 campaign was to complete drilling of the exploration target area and conduct extension drilling to follow-up encouraging 2021 results which highlighted the mineralisation was open to the East. HVY successfully drilled 40% more ground than originally planned, delivering numerous high-grade, shallow THM intercepts; The mineralised footprint has been extended significantly as a result.

Extension Drilling

During the drilling campaign, HVY conducted extension drilling to cover a footprint 40% larger than that of the original Exploration Target (HVY ASX release 1st February 2022). The extension drilling was conducted to extend upon open mineralisation encountered on the eastern side of the target area.

A preliminary block model for the project is presented in Figure 1. The mineralisation is open to both the North and South, within HVY's tenure E70/5160 and recently granted tenement E70/5394.

Select intercepts highlighting the high-grade extension drilling results are presented in Figure 2:

Executive Director & CEO, Mr. Nic Matich said:

"The importance of the 2022 campaign results can't be understated. Extending the mineralised footprint by this amount with high grade, shallow mineralisation, significantly bolsters the prospectivity of the project. As additional work enhances our understanding of the project, we are seeing more and more similarities with the other active garnet operations in the region like GMA & RDG."

Summary of drilling results from 2022

This announcement refers to, a total of 83 holes for 2,927.8 m (refer to Figure 3) that were drilled up to the end of January 2022. All samples drilled were submitted for assay and these assay results have now been returned. A total of 2,293 samples were submitted to Diamantina Laboratories for assay by wet screening and THM float/sink using Tetrabromomethane (TBE). The visual/empirical estimates for the garnet and ilmenite proportion of the THM are very encouraging and are similar in composition to those from the 2021 campaign. A complete summary of the drilling, sampling and assaying techniques is presented in Appendix 1.

The drilling program consisted of aircore drilling to limestone basement or where THM mineralisation closed out, on a regular spaced grid of 100 m east-west by 500 m north-south locations. All holes drilled were vertical and targeted the dunal sand package that sits on top of the Tamala Limestone. Significant drill results are presented in Table 1 below and a complete list of results is provided in Appendix 2.
